A quirky and darkly comic take on domestic life in southern India. Ousep Chacko, journalist and failed novelist, prides himself on being "the last of the real men." This includes waking neighbors upon returning late from the pub. His wife Mariamma stretches their money, raises their two boys, and, in her spare time, gleefully fantasizes about Ousep dying. One day, their seemingly happy seventeen-year-old son Unni - an obsessed comic-book artist - falls from the balcony, leaving them to wonder whether it was an accident.

Sharp prose tainted by awful narration!
Revisado: 04-15-21
I was one of the characters, I was every one of them. Terrific prose- sharp, witty, rife with satire, deliciously dark. The specs of philosophy and psychology perfectly rounds this delectable tale.
But why this quality of narration? Why the awful pronunciation and enunciation? A travesty!
